Is AD playing? He looked really sick at the postgame yesterday.

Will be a tough game considering b2b and players being sick, and that Utah at home is already far from an easy win.

I wouldn’t consider this game too important if we took care of business on Sunday, but I feel like showing up tonight is a necessary statement to make. Even if AD sits (which he should if he’s really not feeling well) we should compete against this team

Honestly I just want this team to put fear into other teams. Winning tonight combined with last night will do a great job in offsetting Sunday’s hungover low effort thoroughly out played performance

We are 2 point underdogs . i dunno but I feel like this is an automatic win. Close but a win.

It will be up to our offense as it has been all year. With the exception of a quarter here or there the defense has been consistently good. Getting some diversity in our offense has been the issue. If Davis and LeBron don't get big numbers our defense doesn't matter. We really need to find a way to include the other players other than bail out 3's with under 5 seconds onto clock which is what we seem to do most of the time.

Good point. Its been a while now. Kuz has been back a while. Rondo has been back a while. We need to start to figure out that 3rd offensive option. Our version of Lou Williams. This is shaping up to be our biggest concern going forward. It won't be figured out in a day but I would like to see us start to figure it out.

Well every win bar one has been close. We just don't do blowouts even against **** teams.

I don't share your confidence about tonight. This is gonna be a tough game on a back to back with Kuz and AD playing sick.

For most of the season we've had the largest point differential.... it sits at the third highest now at an average of 8.2. Granted we've played some closer than they should be games lately we've also learned as a team how to grit out games where we aren't hitting on all cylinders. That's more important than blowouts.

If we win this the GB will be in shambles!!!

Another first quarter with another team dropping 3's.

Landsberger · Post #14 » by **Landsberger** » Thu Dec 5, 2019 2:17 am

Green is active tonight. We've missed a lot of shots in the paint.

Quinn Cook looks like Pat Riley's Blow connection in the '80s

Landsberger · Post #16 » by **Landsberger** » Thu Dec 5, 2019 2:19 am

We're looking fresh so far. Test will be in the 4th quarter however.

McGee looks great tonight so far...

Landsberger · Post #18 » by **Landsberger** » Thu Dec 5, 2019 2:22 am

So.. the refs can go back and look at calls they missed at anytime in the game now?....
